Overview

A harmless old woman searching for love…or a murderer waiting to strike?

Determined to enjoy some peace and quiet in her tranquil home in the Sandhills, no-nonsense sheriff Kate Fox vows to keep herself out of trouble and steer clear of love. But try as she might, fate has a funny way of dragging her back into the fray.

When a mysterious woman from the town’s past appears out of the blue—and moves in with a pair of aging bachelor brothers—Kate fears the woman is up to no good. With the town buzzing over rumors of a hidden fortune, she jumps into a puzzling investigation to unearth the woman’s secretive past and save the brothers from heartbreak.

But as she digs deeper, Kate begins to piece together a disturbing and dangerous story.

With innocent lives on the line, Kate must act fast to prevent disaster…and uncover the shocking truth behind a woman who isn’t what she seems to be.
